I am random, geeky, and spontanious.

My Self-Summary

Hi! I'm Liz / Lizzie / Ellzie / whatever you'd like to call me. I am proudly quite geeky and enjoy video games and table top gaming, conversing about gaming, and tinkering with computers. I also like a few sports (Tennis, Volleyball, and Basketball) even though I suck at them~ I mean.. I'm AMAZING at them.... cough. Via the Ting Tings: "I miss the catch when they throw me the ball, I'm the last chick standing up against the wall. Keep up, falling, these heels they keep me boring, getting clamped up and sitting on the fence now!"

I really like dancing and would be thrilled to find a clubbing buddy. I'm not too savvy with the Des Moines scene.

I'm writing a novel! The Nutritionist's Guide to Zombie Surivival. (Interested in following my progress? Go here! http://community.livejournal.com/ngzsurvival/)

Art-wise I make wire sculptures. Pictures don't really do them justice, however, as I seem to fail at taking hi-rez pictures. I'd like to try clay molding a little more but have yet to get a decent space to set up a work area.

I have a kitten whom I loooove, Her name is Harmony and I've had her since I was 5. She's incredibly spoiled. Like, INCREDIBLY spoiled. She has her own heating pad. And gets massaged with my back massager daily. But I'm not some crazy cat lady, promise!

I'm relatively good with messaging people I find interesting, but sometimes I get a little shy and 'wink' at others. So if I checked you out and didn't message you, and you're interested, wink back at me or email me and you'll find out if I was just too shy.

I'm not too attached to Newton, if I found someone elsewhere that I get serious with I'm not opposed to moving. :D

I have a bad habit of making an uncontrolled squeak subconsciously when certain things happen. You'll just have to find out what they are.

I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to age and maturity. I know I'm only 21, but, I'm independent and don't live with mummy and have a good job. I don't throw wild parties that are so loud the neighbors get pissed off, I work for what I have and I'd really like someone who does the same. I can appreciate someone that's in college full time - but it seems like the majority of the people I meet that are 24 years of age or under aren't very mature, or at least not enough for me. If you think you can show me you're more mature than the average high schooler and want a REAL conversation, by all means send me an email.

Yes, I'm actually bisexual. No, I don't favour one side or the other. No, I'm not just 'doing it for attention.' Please don't message me about it unless you genuinely want to talk about it for your own gain, or if you're confused.

I AM NOT HERE FOR SEX, If you're just going to message me about sex-talk don't bother. Does it say I'm looking for Casual partners over there > ? NO. There are other websites for that. (I know, I sound a little bitchy about that, but I am seriously sick of the 4-5 people IMing me a day about it.)

What I’m doing with my life

Been spending a lot of time on my elliptical lately, I've replaced copious video gaming with copious exercising while watching TV. Big fan of just sweating and watching Eureka.

I currently am working in management at an ISP Technical Support Center. Admittedly it's not the most exciting job, but I love most of my coworkers and it gives me time to do personal things if I need to.

I've recently gotten in to building computers. I'm working on my Mum's desktop computer at the moment, and am pretty excited about educating myself in that realm.

Been dedicating most of my time to writing lately. Hoping to get my book out by March 2010.

Also, tending to my old crotchety cat. She is the queen of the universe and apparently my only role in life is to please her else I want to go deaf with constant yowling. Oy!

I’m really good at

... singing, perhaps not as well as I used to, but it's one of my favourite things to do and for a long time was my life goal. (being successful in the music industry, that is.)

I'd like to think I'm a fairly advanced gamer. Heh.

The first things people usually notice about me

How curly my hair is. Most people I first meet then get the intense urge to boing one of my curls.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: ANYTHING by Piers Anthony or Dean Koontz. I am especially fond of To Ride A Pale Horse (Piers Anthony) and Intensity (Dean Koontz). I'm also quite fond of Keeping You A Secret. I am absolutely in love with Chuck Palanuik.

Movies: At the moment I am a big fan of Serenity, The 10th Kingdom, But I'm A Cheerleader, If These Walls Could Talk, Adam & Steve, Silent Hill and so on.

I watch more TV shows that movies, and am very fond of Greys Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Wonderfalls, Firefly, The L Word Hana Kimi, The IT Crowd, How I Met Your Mother... I've managed to re-watch most of the shows I actively follow and can't seem to find anything good to get in to! Usually I rely on www.surfthechannel.com and most of the things people have suggested I can't watch D:
However! My roommate is a Supernatural nut and has dragged me into insanity with her. I'm still looking for a way out.

Music-wise, I listen to just about anything. Jude is one of my favourites (if you're going to google him, type Jude - Prophet... googling just Jude is bound to leave for hours of annoyance trying to find the right link.), I like Evanescence due to being able to get overtones when singing along with Ami Lee. I'm a big fan of alternative and hard rock. Going to the Korn concert in August, and NIN! Eeee!

I'm not picky when it comes to food. I could live off of rice and a little soy sauce. Sushi is probably my favourite thing ever. If I had to choose between an orgasm and Unagi, I'd probably have to go with Unagi (eel). I love cooking and am always trying to come up with new things.

Editors

The six things I could never do without

My cat, Sushi Rice, My cuddle pillow (Yes! I have one of these!), Super Nintendo, Sex, Good Grammar.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

How much I HATE uneven numbers; what I should put in my book; lyrics; how many steps I've taken that day.

On a typical Friday night I am

Working D:

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I have a bit of a problem with OCD. Mostly about numbers. My favourite number is 26 and uneven numbers drive me crazy. The number 7 is iffy though, since it's supposed to be "lucky." I don't know, it just bothers me.

Also, I hate how big my boobs are.

You should message me if

...well, generally I think it's a little lame when people just say "you want to" or "if you want a good conversation" or things like that... but I'm not too picky! And if you're not my type I'll just politely inform you of this.

If you need a new table top gaming partner DEFINITELY message me :P

DO NOT, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, MESSAGE ME: if ur guna talk liek dis. Shut the fuck up. It is spelled YOU and ARE. UGH that seriously pisses me off *$* )$(*@$. Ehem.
